Thought it was time I introduced my rodent family. I'll start with the ratties:

Tess - dumbo mismarked black hooded

And Meg - dumbo siamese

My girls

They're both little monsters and keep me well and truely on my toes, but despite only having them since October just I can't imagine life without them! Very Happy

Hi Kelinik Very Happy

what gorgeous photos!! I love the photo of Tess sticking her head out the curtain! Laughing

Are they out most of the time? Do they ever 'hide' in your house?

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks!

They get to free range for a couple of hours every evening and being little mischief makers get pretty much everywhere. They are limited to just one room to play in and aren't allowed anywhere near my mouse cages as they are predatory animals. Rats are very intelligent and are great fun, the training is going well with my two and they both now come when I call their names and clap and come back to their cage for dinner when I ring a bell. Very Happy

Lol! My poor hubbie is forever ending up with random letters in his lines of code, and she has an amazing trick of managing to put caps lock on almost everytime she gets near a keyboard! Laughing

meg although slightly smaller looks like my first rattie that i had called elric. he went everywhere with me. people thought he was a 'cute' ferret, then freaked once they found out he was a rat.

They are beautiful... It made me all silly to see them and brought back fond memories about my little ones, sadly they are all gone now, including mum. I've posted some pics of them in the gallery.
